I am starting to think this too. Once it is running then yes, it is brilliant especially on veg oil. Better speed, mpg, 0-60, torque, brillaint, once it gets hot!
It will be a series 3 again for me next time I think as that never let me down, no matter how cold it was. It was just attrocious at towing anything though.

If your alternator is chucking out that much it'll be cooking your battery, It should be between 13.5-14.5 volts.
